University Hospitals of Derby and Burton

Our organisation

We listen to patients, our people, the public, and our partners, to help us think through how we can help people to stay well, and provide the best possible care.

Our vision and values

As a new Trust we wanted to bring all five hospitals and 12,500 team members together.

‘We’ looked at our ‘Why?’, our fundamental purpose, the thing that guides all we do.

‘We’ looked at our ‘How?’, the way we’re going to behave - with each other, our patients, partners and the public we serve.

‘We’ looked at the ‘What?’, the big steps we must take in the future.

You said... More than 1,000 staff attended face-to-face Big Conversations and a further 2,000 contributed their ideas to our new vision and values. Through 8,500 contributions they said…

"Together We make a difference, We save lives and give excellent care to everyone who needs it. We will become the best place to work, learn and receive care in the NHS by applying the highest level of skill, knowledge and research."

Our teams across UHDB will work to put the vision, values and behaviours at the very heart of what we do.
